Yesterday we spent all day in Burgas, staying at Diamond Beach apartments and we took the kids to Burgas Zoo which was surprisingly not at all like an Eastern European zoo but with large enclosures and wildlife habitats. We then spent the afternoon at Burgas park.
This morning we set off early to Varna in order to buy the paint we need to paint the caravan. However it was a bank holiday today also in Bulgaria and the boat supplies shops were closed. This was a bit of a fatal flaw in our plan for this week as the idea was to get the caravan fully functional and also painted.
We therefore headed off to Kaman Bryag and arrived around lunch time and spent the afternoon on the plot also discovering that the caravan battery had leaked acid and that the water tank was mouldy further scuppering our plans.
So the revised plan for tomorrow now is to try and get a new battery, repair the electrics and attempt to get the caravan fully functioning.
Fortunately aall the moth trapping gear is working well and it's on now so looking forward to check what's in there tomorrow morning. Been a few casual bird highlights including Honey Buzzard, Long-legged Buzzard and White Pelicans over the zoo and today there was a good selection of birds at the plot including a singing Eastern Bonelli's Warbler which is a local patch first.
